Hear, for I will speak noble things, and from my lips will come what is right,
the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints.
My inmost being will exult when your lips speak what is right.
for I give you good precepts; do not forsake my teaching.
This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world.”
My mouth shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.
